10 System Administrator Truths

I found this
article while
Slashdotting for tech news. I find that the list is indeed true! However, it is unfortunate that not all System Administrator know these truths. Take my university, for instance, #2 is not true but instant messaging is! Clerks only get to know that their network is down not because they cannot browse the web to check their email or other news site but because their Yahoo! Messenger could not connect! Shesh! Item 3 on the list can be further stressed when you shift to Linux! Printers suck! Item 5 - if you call making a mirror of your disk on another partition on the same physical drive backing up, then I guess the folks in some of the units in the university is indeed doing back-up! Hehehe... Item 8. Sometimes you have to be a pain in the you know what when the client is an ***hole. Does the saying "the customer is always right" apply here? I am sure that you can add more to list - so if you may, please add it here.
